Am seeking information of my Grandmother's family.

She was Anne Jane Leyland born 1873 daughter of John Leyland B.1848 and Anne (née Finigan) of 5 Melding's Row, Sutton

Also the Almond family of Robin's lane, my Uncle married into this family but can find no information on Mary Ellen Waterworth née Almond) after 1929

Thank you

Hi Gill

 

My great-grandfather's brother, Robert Eccles (born 1887 in Bold) married a Jane Almond in 1909. Jane was born in about 1887 and died in 1929 (buried at St Helens Cemetery).

 

Robert and Jane lived at Oxley Street, just off Robin's Lane (Robert's father Henry also lived in Robins Lane).

 

Is Jane part of your Almond family?

 

Cheers

Hello A.J. and Gilly,

I am afraid I don't know anything about the Almond family, Mary Ellen Almond married my Uncle but I don't know where or when!!

 

According to 1891 census

Joseph aged 30 Glass grinder

Katie 28yrs (wife)

Mary Ellen daughter aged 2

 

1901 census

as the above but now including

Annie 9yrs

Joseph 7yrs

William 5yrs

Ellis A. 4yrs

Edmond 1yr

Alice G. (under 1month)

 

Hope this is of use ,if you have anything about Mary Ellen I would be grateful for the information.

She returned to 318 Robin's lane in 1929 after the death of her husband Herbert Dalby Waterworth in Adelaide Australia.

Regards

Gill

Hello Gill and others interested in the Almond family - As a newcomer to this site I am looking at the Almond connection. I do have some information for you in that Mary Ellen is a descendent of my Almond family. Father was Jacob Joseph 1860, father Henry 1825, father Peter 1778, father Peter 1773, father Peter 1710. My ggggggrandfather (approx) John 1774 was brother to Peter 1778. Majority of the family lived around Billinge/Moss Bank then St Helens and Farnworth. Hope this is of some use to you

Hi - Jane Almond 1870-1938 did have a brother Nathan 1866 - father was Henry Moses 18351894, his father being Henry 1806-1877 (brother to my gggrandfather). The grave number is 9/539 but presumably you have already checked this out in St Helens Cemetery

I have checked the St Helens burial and crematorium records - found Mary Ellen Waterworth was cremated 2/9/1983 - number 24079.

Mary Ellen was the eldest of 10 children (2nd child Joseph died aged 5 months). Most of the information on this side of the family came from a contact in Canada. One way of finding out more may be to check the voting records of people living in Robins Lane from 1930's? Her father moved to 152 New Street around 1932. When I next call into the library I will do my best to look this up - but it won't be for a while yet.

Dorothy,

Thank you for that information, Mary Ellen lived to a ripe old age and it confirms that she didn't return to Australia after her husband's death and never remarried.

Are you still in touch with your contact in Canada?

Would the family have any photos of Mary Ellen and her husband?

Will send you a p.m.regarding, the story of her and my Uncle.

Once again thank you for the information it is very much appreciated

Best wishes

Gill

Hi Gill

I think I may be the "Canadian connection" Dorothy referred to. Sorry but I don't know much more about Mary Ellen other than they married in 1926 in London S'merstown. I have some additional info on Mary Ellen's siblings. My father, Terry ALMOND (1917-1996), used to visit the family when he was a child. Her parents were Joseph and Kate (nee Glover), and they married in 1887. They attended St Anne's RC Church in Sutton.

 

Mary Ellen's father Joseph was my gt-grandfather James Almond(1856-1938)'s brother.

My Grandmother Ann Jane died in 1957 and is buried in the family grave in Anfield Cemetery .
